Abstract
- The article presents a daily report on wage efforts by the United Mine Workers (UMW) from March 10-October 26, 1943. Wage conferences were held with Southern and Northern Appalachian operators including demands for a two U.S. dollars day pay increase for underground travel time, 30 U.S. dollars increase in vacation pay, and compensation for occupational charges, on March 10, 1943. Northern operators rejected the proposal the next day, while Southern operators asked for status quo to remain.
